Berigan is veteran of many col lege proms but will be making his first appearance ct Duke. Though his name is a byword to music und dance lovers all over Amer ica, Bunny organized his band eighteen, months ago.

Tickets have been distributed to the chapters on the campus in accordance with the recently adopted plan of fraternity subsidi zation of dances by Jim McGim sey, treasurer of the council. Each chapter has received tickets amounting to approximately four fifths of the active membership. A new plan for decorating the gymnasium was also adopted. Each fraternity will be allotted a cer tain amount of wall space which it will have to decorate itself. The council will decorate the ceil ing. By decision of the council, the Pan-Hellenic figure is to be abol ished at the Friday evening dance, and corsages and a no-break are to be permtited instead. Duke Chronicle. They Flatter Anyone . .

Outstate fees face hike Civic leaders propose tree-lined entranceway for Washington State A tree-lined approach to the campus from Tenth Avenue North oast, long a dream of university planners, is once more up for con sideration before the state legisla ture now meeting in its biennial session in Olympia. Civic leaders of Seattle jour neyed to the state capitol last Thursday to meet with the roads and bridges committee of the Sen ate to explain the proposed 160 foot entranceway which would be1 built between 40th and 41st. Con struction of such an approach, leaders say, would necessitate the confiscation of all property lying in the 4000 block between Tenth and Fifteenth avenues at a cost of $185,000. Planned by Gould. , "The project was first planned by the late Carl Gould, who orig inated the campus plan which is now approaching completion," Beckett said yesterday. "Property valuations in the district," he con tinued, "are now the lowest they have been in 18 years so we feel that the construction work should be done immediately." Originally proposed to be built on Fortieth avenue, the entrance plans were changed to a 160-foot strip through the blocks between Tenth avenue (Roosevelt Way) and Fifteenth. Such an approach would leave 160 feet on each side of the entranceway for buildings as the block is 480 feet long. Beckett indicated last night that the group that journeyed to Olym pia last week would probably have to meet again with the roads and bridges committee. "We hope to convince the senate committee that the approach should be built now," the Commercial club president said, "so that the necessary legis lation will be passed during this session of the legislature or it will have to wait for another two years." The committee made up of civic leaders from throughout the city are asking that the necessary ap propriation come from the gaso line tax fund, as the new approach would be a part of the state high way system.

Martin Dies, chairman of the house committee investigating un-A m e r i c a n activities, tele graphed the Yale Daily News Sat urday requesting information con cerning the activities of the German-American bund in New Hav en. The telegram came in the wake of the hoisting of a swastika on the Yale university flagpole and the distribution of pro-nazi leaf lets Thursday. Only the prompt action of cam pus police prevented a serious antl-nazi demonstration Thursday night. Showing its active opposi tion to the recent agitation of the fascist bund, an angry mob was attempting to hoist an effigy of Hitler to the top of the Ledyard flagstaff when stopped by he po lice. Daily Prlnetonian. DENVER Student Thought Week emphasizes campus over-organization After weeks of preparation which involved making a thoro in vestigation of all campus organi zations, members of the committee onMhe Week of Student Thought purled back the veil of their find ings Monday and launched the fifth annual Week of Student Thought. The theme selected this year was "Campus Over-organization" and the ten o'clock chapel programs and afternoon seminars were built around this general topic. Armed with a battery of statis tics and general authority, cam pus leaders carried on chapel dis cussions of such things as "Who is Over-organized," Organiza tions for What?" "Student Government-Democracy or Hierar chy?" and "What to Do About It?" These topics were discussed more fully at the open seminars in the afternoon, with many inter esting developments coming out of the meetings. D. U.'s 1939 Week of Student Thought was comparatively calm with no indication of fine friend ships being broken as a result of the seminar discussions. This was in direct contrast to last year's af fair in which the fireworks were many and varied. YOUR DRUG STORE Girls, when yen find yon nerd toilet accrnsorirs Just call our phone num ber.

As it was pased by the house it provided a stiff fee of $100 a semester, but Senator John Boyce McKeel, who hails from the East Central Teachers college district, amended it to set the fee at the average cost-per-student of the college in which the out-of-state student enrolls. "If we don't do something," McKeel declared, "we are going to have to limit enrollment. We are supposed to be on the economy program and if enrollments keep growing we'll have to raise appro priations. The chief critic of the bill was Senator Julius Cox of Panhandle A. & M. college district, who charged that the high fee would drive away students from his col lege and bring reprisals from Col orado, Texas, Kansas and New Mexico, where many Panhandle graduates are now finding jobs. Survey It Made. As amended the bill probably will set out-of-state fees at O. U. and A. & M. at about $100 a se mester, for Senator Charles Duffy said the $100 figure was arrived at after a planning board survey of per capita costs at the two insti tutions. Daily O'Collegian.

A. ad ministration and faculty united yesterday in expressing profound satisfaction at the selection of Dr. Eduard Benes, former president of Czechoslovakia, as Charter day speaker. President Robert Gordon Sproul praised the brilliunt scholar-statesman as a "champion of democracy" and a person whom the university is "extremely happy to welcome." "A champion of democracy in an era when democracy is hard pressed by totalitarian govern ments, what he has to say in America should be fraught with deep interest to liberty loving peo-f pie, for he will speak with a feel ing born of. experience with an undertaking gained at first hand," Doctor Sproul said. jj Birthday Present. "The University of California in both its parts is to be profoundly congratulated on having secured for its "birthday" speaker a man of such eminence as former Pres ident Benes," Doctor Graham said. "Because he embodies the proud est democratic traditions in Eur ope and has an unwavering faith in the ways and methods of de mocracy, the university commun ity can look forward to an excel lent presentation of a way of life which is of the essence of things American. ..Doctor Benes is no dull pedant, but one of the most intensely alive persons in the world today, far from crushed by the misfortunes which have come upon his coun try. He has retained his objectiv ity and calm and scientific point of view without ceasing to be hu manly alert to all of the major forces that are at work in the world at the present time. Daily Bruin.
